OK! Hang in here with me and the fog. The clip shows some of the peculiarities you can run into with fog and a camera. I was at the dam before sunrise this morning. Really wanted to show to all of you the incredible flow of the Haw River and maybe, just maybe a sunrise too. Fog! The river was much warmer than the air above it and so fog was scattered everywhere. Cameras don’t like to try to focus a video through fog. One thing to take a shot of fog hanging in the trees or being still on the lake … another thing totally when you want to track through the fog. Please hang in there with me as I try to show you the fog, the river thundering out of the tailrace and across the fishing pier, and just maybe a snippet of the sunrise. Thanks for putting up with me.

I admit: I had gotten more than a little frustrated with the rain and more rain.
Then Mother Nature handed me a breath-taking gift.
On top of the dam this morning my friend sang out “look at that”.
Though a fine veil of rain, a rainbow appeared over the peninsula between the Haw River and the New Hope River.
Oh my.
